  • Flynn, R. 'Tackling the Directive: Television Without Frontiers and Irish Soccer.' in Trends in Communication Vol. 12, 2/3
    Flynn, R. ‘Tackling the Directive: Television Without Frontiers and Irish soccer.’ in Trends in Communication Vol. 12, 2/3, pp. 131 - 152. Abstract With the liberalisation of European Broadcasting from the 1980s and the early identification by new commercial channels of sporting events as key content to encourage viewing/subscription the relationship between sports and media organisations has inevitably become closer and more lucrative. However with the amendment of the Television Without Frontiers directive in 1997 a new element - the state - entered the equation, rendering it all the more complex. This paper demonstrates the extent to which in the modern era sports journalism can only offer a truly comprehensive account of events by adopting approaches more commonly associated with business and political journalism. It does so by examining the biggest Irish “sports” story of 2002: not the Irish teams participation in the World Cup but the subsequent sale of broadcast rights for that team’s home games to BSkyB. The narrative throws light on the increasingly complex relationship between sport, commercial and public service media, and the state but also details an extremely novel application of the Television Without Frontiers directive by the Irish state. * * * * On July 5 2002, three weeks after the Republic of Ireland football team had returned from the World Cup in Asia, the Football Association of Ireland (FAI) announced that they had sold BSkyB exclusive live television rights to Republic of Ireland home internationals for the next four years. The statement went on to note that deferred coverage rights had been sold to TV3, Ireland’s only privately owned1 free-to-air commercial broadcaster.

  • Candidate Information Booklet
    Maynooth University Human Resources Office Candidate Information Booklet Author: Human Resources Maynooth University: A Brief Description Overview Formally established as an autonomous university in 1997, but tracing its origins to the foundation of the Royal College of St. Patrick in 1795, Maynooth University (National University of Ireland Maynooth) is in one sense Ireland’s newest university, yet it draws on a heritage of over 200 years of commitment to education and scholarship. The last two decades have seen the University grow rapidly in scale strength and stature. Maynooth University is today a university of international standing, renowned for the quality and value of its research and scholarship, for its dedication to excellent teaching, for providing an outstanding learning experience for its 10,000 students, and as a uniquely collegial environment in which to pursue scholarly work. Maynooth University is located 25 km from the centre of Dublin city, on a campus which reflects the University’s 18th century roots and 21st century dynamism. It is Ireland’s fastest-growing university, embedded in and engaged with Ireland’s fastest-growing and economically most important region. The University has distinctive institutional capacities, with historic strengths in humanities, social sciences and science and engineering, newly-established departments of business and law, and specific research strengths in spatial analysis and geocomputation, applied mathematics and applied ICT, immunology and chemical biology, historical and cultural traditions, and business innovation. Maynooth University has a particularly strong reputation for excellent and innovative teaching, and its commitment to liberal education. The University provides an exceptional student experience for all its students, and is a national leader in widening participation, with the highest proportion of non-traditional and first-generation students of any Irish university.

  • Save Geography KL Comments (003)
    Dear Sir, As Heads of Geography Departments at Irish third level institutions we are writing to express our deep concern at the demotion of Geography from being a core subject at Junior Cert Level. This will have detrimental impacts both on our young people and on the country as a whole. Geography is the only discipline which combines the study of both the natural and social worlds, and their interaction, and is key to solving global problems such as climate change and poverty, in addition to examining and proposing solutions to pressing national issues such as the current housing crisis. At a time when the unique skills of geographers are being recognised as essential to successful decision-making processes it is vitally important that all secondary school students in Ireland have a geographic training so that they can become active participants in tackling national and global issues. As we live in a world increasingly defined by these “wicked problems” with multiple causes and interactions the next generation of Irish decision-makers need to be equipped with the practical and analytical skills to effectively address them – this starts in primary and secondary schools. Geographers in Ireland, make vital contributions to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, are central to rural diversification innovations, lead the field in marine spatial planning, have an ever growing role in optimising terrestrial planning and are increasingly being sought as experts on a myriad of emerging global issues, such as microplastics, forced migration, globalisation and sustainable consumption. These are just some of many examples where Geographers in Ireland are having global impact.
